Region-adaptable retrieval of coastal biogeochemical parameters from near-surface hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance using physics-aware meta-learning

Hyperspectral in situ sensing has shown promise in retrieving aquatic biogeochemical (BGC) parameters, such as total suspended solids, dissolved organic carbon, and total chlorophyll-a, for cost-effective monitoring of coastal water quality. However, generalising such retrieval algorithms across water bodies remains challenging, as the relationship between remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) and BGC parameters can vary considerably from one region to another due to regional distinctions in environmental conditions and biogeochemistry that lead to different BGC ranges and bio-optical properties. In this study, we propose a two-stage physics-aware meta-learning framework for retrieving coastal BGC parameters from near-surface Rrs observations. In the first stage, a bio-optical forward model is used to generate a large synthetic dataset based on an in situ bio-optical spectral library with broad representativeness of Australian coastal waters. This dataset is then used to pretrain a region-agnostic base model with meta-learning, allowing the model to learn fundamental physical relationships. In the second stage, the pretrained base model is fine-tuned for specific regions with local samples. We collected in situ hyperspectral Rrs and BGC measurements from five geographically distinct sites in Australian coastal waters. Our experimental results suggest: (1) the BGC parameters and their corresponding hyperspectral Rrs signatures exhibited clear regional distinctions among the experimental sites; (2) the synthetic dataset was physically plausible and closely aligned with real-world samples in both parameter distributions and inter-parameter correlations; (3) the proposed approach outperformed five benchmark models in BGC retrieval; and (4) time series of in situ measured and model-predicted BGC parameters showed good agreement in both magnitude and temporal dynamics.

Picture an Astronomer: Best Practices for Retaining Talent in Astrophysics

Women are consistently underrepresented in astrophysics yet are simultaneously subject to disproportionate attrition at every career stage. This disparity between demonstrated efficacy in job performance and ultimate career outcome was the primary motivation for the Picture an Astronomer series, which included both targeted public outreach to increase representation of women in astrophysics and high-level, solution-oriented discussions among professional astronomers. In March 2025, more than 200 astronomers came together in a hybrid-format symposium focused on the state of the field for female scientists, combining scientific exchange with discussions of policies and practices to strengthen retention of talent in the field. This white paper is the result of those discussions, offering a wide range of recommendations developed in the context of gendered attrition in astrophysics but which ultimately support a healthier climate for all scientists alike.

Quantitative Assessment of DESIS Hyperspectral Data for Plant Biodiversity Estimation in Australia

Diversity of terrestrial plants plays a key role in maintaining a stable, healthy, and productive ecosystem. Though remote sensing has been seen as a promising and cost-effective proxy for estimating plant diversity, there is a lack of quantitative studies on how confidently plant diversity can be inferred from spaceborne hyperspectral data. In this study, we assessed the ability of hyperspectral data captured by the DLR Earth Sensing Imaging Spectrometer (DESIS) for estimating plant species richness in the Southern Tablelands and Snowy Mountains regions in southeast Australia. Spectral features were firstly extracted from DESIS spectra with principal component analysis, canonical correlation analysis, and partial least squares analysis. Then regression was conducted between the extracted features and plant species richness with ordinary least squares regression, kernel ridge regression, and Gaussian process regression. Results were assessed with the coefficient of correlation ($r$) and Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE), based on a two-fold cross validation scheme. With the best performing model, $r$ is 0.71 and RMSE is 5.99 for the Southern Tablelands region, while $r$ is 0.62 and RMSE is 6.20 for the Snowy Mountains region. The assessment results reported in this study provide supports for future studies on understanding the relationship between spaceborne hyperspectral measurements and terrestrial plant biodiversity.

Cosmological constraints from the redshift dependence of the Alcock-Paczynski effect: Possibility of estimateing the non-linear systematics using fast simulations

The tomographic AP method is so far the best method in separating the Alcock-Paczynski (AP) signal from the redshift space distortion (RSD) effects and deriving powerful constraints on cosmological parameters using the $\lesssim40h^{-1}\ \rm Mpc$ clustering region. To guarantee that the method can be easily applied to the future large scale structure (LSS) surveys, we study the possibility of estimating the systematics of the method using fast simulation method. The major contribution of the systematics comes from the non-zero redshift evolution of the RSD effects, which is quantified by $\hatξ_{Δs}(μ,z)$ in our analysis, and estimated using the BigMultidark exact N-body simulation and approximate COLA simulation samples. We find about 5\%/10\% evolution when comparing the $\hatξ_{Δs}(μ,z)$ measured as $z=0.5$/$z=1$ to the measurements at $z=0$. We checked the inaccuracy in the 2pCFs computed using COLA, and find it 5-10 times smaller than the intrinsic systematics of the tomographic AP method, indicating that using COLA to estimate the systematics is good enough. Finally, we test the effect of halo bias, and find $\lesssim$1.5\% change in $\hatξ_{Δs}$ when varying the halo mass within the range of $2\times 10^{12}$ to $10^{14}$ $M_{\odot}$. We will perform more studies to achieve an accurate and efficient estimation of the systematics in redshift range of $z=0-1.5$.
